Weekend Fun
Posted by Mike - February 11, 2008 at 07:02:37 amThe weather was beautiful over the weekend. I’ve been spending a lot of my free time programming side projects but yesterday was so nice I had to take advantage. So I went on my first bike ride in a few weeks. My plan was to do the usual route: up Park to Snake and then take Skyline to Grizzly Peak and come down Centennial by the Lawrence Hall of Science and the Botanical garden. Then I usually either go around the UC Berkeley campus to see what’s new or go down Claremont straight home.
Yesterday, however, Skyline toward Grizzly was closed so I had to go the other way toward the Chabot science center, then come down from the hills and take 13 to Berkeley before going up to Grizzly. I didn’t mind though cause it was so nice out.
The new front tire I put on a few weeks ago feels really nice. My turns are much smoother now and the bike feels more in control. But I think I’m leaking oil. 
I noticed it dripping out the bottom whenever I came to a stop light.
I devoted most of the rest of the weekend to trying to get Imagemagick to work on OS X. After having no luck from the binary install I checked out this guy’s post on how to Install ImageMagick from Source on OS X Tiger and got it sorted out. I think problem I had was not having the OS X Developer Tools installed. I still got an error when installing the jpeg library but it seems to work anyway.
I also got SVN sorted out last night. Now everything is on Google Code. It wasn’t until after I put everything there that I found out Mediatemple provides SVN hosting as well. Poop.

FYI I figured out the jpeg error sorted out, and updated the post to include the command you have to do to fix it.
